Description
The connections between Ruby Rose and Maka Albarn are that they are both scythe-wielding teenage girls who aspire to be professional hunters of the evil creatures that threaten their worlds (Grimm and Kishin, respectively). Both attended special schools designed for this purpose that were overseen by immortals (Beacon Academy run by Professor Ozpin and the Death Weapon Meister Academy run by Lord Death, respectively) and eventually rose to become leaders of their respective teams. Both have mothers who were also students at said schools and who have been mostly absent from their lives (Summer Rose and Maka's unnamed mother, respectively), instead being raised by their single fathers (Taiyang Xiao Long and Spirit Albarn, respectively). Both have powers that are connected to their souls (Aura and Semblances are powered by the soul and Maka can use Soul Resonance), as well as secondary abilities considered rare in their worlds (the Silver Eyes and the Grigori Soul, respectively). Both of their scythes follow the unique gimmick of their universes' weapons (Ruby has a melee-weapon/gun hybrid scythe, whereas Maka's scythe is actually a human who can transform). Additionally, both of their greatest enemies are witches (Salem for Ruby and Medusa and Arachne for Maka).
